Once Human, Now a Parasite

Chapter 282


Chapter 282

"We’ll use it to our advantage . Although the savage aura is pretty troubling, the Dark Magic inside of you will easily consume it so no worries . "

Arthur didn’t know what exactly his copy was talking about, nonetheless, he decided to go along with this plan . He nodded his head as his eyes focused on the red pillar of light .

"Now then, relax your body and let it invade you . I’ll take care of the rest . "

Curtis could hear their conversation so upon the copy’s signal, he withdrew his shield and re-entered Arthur’s consciousness, guarding the chained soul .

When the red light covered him, Arthur felt that he’s the one being possessed, it was a weird and uncomfortable feeling that he would rather not experience but he bore with it and dropped all his defenses, purposely letting his body become defenseless against this brutal light .

The instant the red light reached his Dantian, an ominous aura emanated from the calm black Talisman floating above the core . It released absurd amounts of red light from the whole body, no matter how the red light tried to resist or hide, it wasn’t able to escape from the talisman’s grasp .

Arthur’s body was the talisman’s territory, nothing could escape from it as long as it acts, with a strange weird dark light that shrouded him completely, the appearance of his body started experiencing change .

Red chains tattoos materialized from the tip of his limbs until they covered all his body, twirling around it like a venomous snake . This process happened in three seconds and by the time the Talisman calmed down, the entirety of the pillar of red light was totally consumed by the talisman, resulting in a small red dot to appear at its center .

Upon a closer inspection, one could feel the presence of the brutal light lingering in that red dot, however, it was suppressed by the talisman with no way of retaliation .

"This is enough, for now . It should hold on for a week, that’s way better than I expected . "

The copy breathed a sigh of relief as he gazed at the small chains tattoos around Arthur’s body . The person in question inspected his body and frowned upon seeing the tattoos, he felt that his power significantly decreased but it was still stronger than before .

The end against the Divine Beast was finally over and he managed to buy a couple of days so it isn’t a big loss for him despite causing the whole continent to become a land of absolute death .

Any person under the God Realm that is brave enough to venture in this land would certainly die . If not because of the poison then the radiation slowly wear him out and kill him .

This area was a bit safer since the tribulation managed to push the radiation and poison away but that won’t last forever, after a while, it’ll come back and linger here for a long, long time .

’It’s time to see who’s hiding rat . ’

Arthur stared East, from where the red pillar of light came, his sense and map didn’t give him any information which only means that the enemy is pretty far from here .

To be able to launch such a terrifying attack from such a distance, that race was definitely hiding a strong trump card, alas, they used it at an inappropriate time .

"Why would they target me, to begin with?"

The target was definitely him and their goal wasn’t to kill him so this left Arthur rather confused about their true intentions .

"Hehehe, it’s obviously to weaken you then capture you . You’re the perfect puppet for them . "

"Puppet?"

"Yes, they can turn people into mindless puppets that they can control with ease, however, it is very rare to find a suitable puppet, one that is perfectly compatible with that brutal energy . "

Just as Arthur was going to head to East to pay a visit to the Cthulhu Race, a large white shadow appeared before him . With an overwhelming pressure and a bright golden light, it growled angrily and opened its wide mouth, spitting weird acid .

Surprised by the speed of this enemy and its sudden appearance, Arthur could only cross his arms in defense and conjure a sturdy Dark Barrier along with the deceased Druid’s watery surface to reduce the incoming damage .

Fortunately, breaking the chains healed him from all his injuries and he recovered to his peak state, so he won’t die easily, nonetheless, he can’t afford to be hit .

Just as the weird acid was going to cover him, a red fog covered the area in an instant, it was followed by a foul stench of blood . A short silhouette emerged before Arthur, blocking the acid with but a hand .

This hand was withered and rotten, it had a creepy look and was made of ancient flesh that decayed too much to the point of becoming grey .

The rotten hand had an invisible whirlpool the size of a thumb that rotated slowly and absorbed all the acid, even the one which was far away was swallowed .

This short silhouette was none other than Swain, who elegantly stood before his master . He waved his rotten hand, unleashing the same kind of acid and throwing it at the large white Divine Beast which had red eyes indicating its enraged state .

"How is it possible for it to be alive?"

Arthur only received absolute silence from his copy, who was supposed to be acknowledgeable about this stuff .

Despite hearing no answer, he didn’t sit idly and wait for the White Tiger to attack again . With Swain as a support, he used [Faster Than Death], appearing on the rear of the Divine Beast, and executed [Unparalelled Golden Palm] .

His palm emitted a golden radiance that matched the one emanating from his foe, the illusory big palm landed on the tiger’s back, however, it wasn’t able to push him back, much less send him flying like earlier .

Arthur didn’t give up as he waved his other hand, throwing more than ten detonators at the tiger, which caused massive explosions to occur all around him, filling the area with smoke and turbulent winds . Swain made use of this chance to sneak under the tiger and use his rotten hand to absorb the golden radiance and the white energy close to the tiger, trying to throw it back at it when the time is ripe .

"It is no use, Arthur! We were fooled! There were two leaders from the very beginning, you must retreat for now!"

"Retreat? That’s not an option!"

Arthur smirked as he teleported three times, getting away from the White Tiger, which used its tail to strike the area he was just at right now .

As he floated next to his servant and gazed at the White Tiger, which seemed to be stronger every passing second, Arthur possessed the body of the silver wolf and said

"It’s four against one, the tides have turned so why should I retreat?"

The copy remained silent as he was confused about what’s happening, but that confusion only lasted for a split second before he understood the meaning behind Arthur’s words .

As he said that, a low yet deep growl resounded in his consciousness, blue thunder descended from above, shattering space and pushing away the incoming poison .

Next to Arthur appeared a wolf of similar size to the one he’s possessing . This beast was made from blue thunder, it had two ferocious blood red eyes and a very long tail that had a tip which crackled with purple thunder, similar to the one seen in the tribulation .

"We must really thank the heavens, right?"

"Villainous Heavens were jealous and unsuccessful in their attempt . This one is only grateful to master . "

Astrith made a small bow toward Arthur, he was significantly bigger than his original size . The tribulations helped him end his evolution faster than predicted . Arthur was smart enough to let small amounts of lightning tribulation enter his body, he directed it to his consciousness, where Astrith was .

Arthur merely nodded and stared at his left, where a knight covered in golden armor and riding a big white steed appeared . The night had handsome facial features and not even the helmet could cover that .

With a half-golden half-white shield on his back, a white sword in a golden sheath on his waist and last but not least, a three-meter-long yellow spear on his hands .

This spear belonged to the Earth Spirit, but with Curtis’ ’persuasion’, it was lent a second time, its might is terrifying and with a proper use, it could deal fatal damages .

A golden knight, a thunder wolf, a blood and death user, and a parasite, stood next to each other facing the White Tiger, which roared loudly as it glared at them with a hostile gaze . It didn’t seem to be fazed by them, in fact, its eyes showed disdain and arrogance as if they were not its match .

Its body was unscathed even after being hit by more than ten detonators, it is definitely stronger than before and as for how it became like this, no one knew but from his copy’s words from earlier, Arthur had a few speculations .
